[QUOTE="Jr. Corvette, post: 147041, member: 1906"] Hey guys. Spence mentioned I should be posting some pictures of my winter project on here instead of just instagram and facebook. Some of you know already know this but last January I drove down to revelstoke and picked up this T56 and some extras for a steal of a deal. Now this winter I have begun the rebuild process and will be installing it into my car along with electronic cruise control, new sony stereo, another layer of sound deadening (butyl rubber/aluminum foil base with closed cell foam on top), and I have finished taking off the windshield trim, repainted it and POR’d the windshield frame. I’ve also polished my stainless steel header trim and had it clear wrap so as to preserve the finish. I’m also having the upper header corner trim pieces re chromed so the interior will be 100% done after this winter. Along with the interior work I’ll be pulling off my doors and painting the inside of them and the door jams in that flat black color so as to rid my car of the white that is on it. I’m rebuilding my T56 with all the goodies; New mainshaft, new viper spec 2nd gear, brass shift fork bushings, carbon/kevlar sychros, steel 3/4 shift fork, sand blasted and powder coated case, mgw shifter, customer front gear cluster sprayer, brass isolator cup, and a few other things. All making it capable of 700hp + I also have some custom work to do on my fans as so to gain more camber (I’m running some 4000cfm derale fans which weren’t supposed to fit in my car. The left suspension actually protrudes into the fan. So I need to clearance the fan shroud to gain the camber. I will also be pulling the diff and putting 3.90’s in it. So if you’re interested, follow along because this will be a fast paced build to finish every thing before summer! [/QUOTE]
